This is good advice, though I would recommend the original poster to consider taking time off before signing up for courses (70-90 hours a week with 24/7 on-call needs treatment for burnout, which comprises time off).

>"Second, be disciplined when managing your time. Put in the hours you need to put in at work, but don't rob yourself of your free time by working excessively long days."

To add additional clarity for any readers who skimmed: OP should be disciplined with creating time for their personal life by creating boundaries with the company, and should stop being as disciplined with sacrificing personal interests on behalf of the company.

Overall, the poster's primary interest at this point should be to improve the stability of their own life as much as possible, regardless of how people at the company will feel about it.
